Naming Conventions for Log Files

This topic lists the naming conventions for server components and their associated log files on the Siebel Server and the remote client.

Log Files on the Siebel Server

Table 4 lists server components and the associated log files that Siebel Remote creates in the following directory:

• On Windows, in the SIEBEL_ROOT/log directory on the Siebel Server. For example, /ses/siebsrvr/log.
• On UNIX, in the /ses/siebsrvr/enterprises/enterprise_name/server_name/log directory on the Siebel Server.

These files include information that various server components create for SQL based events. The task Id is the identification number of the server task that created the log file. For example, TxnProc_7204.log.

For more information about:

• Generating log files, see Configuring Traces for a Server Component.
• An example log file, see Example Log File for Transaction Merger.
• Other information sources, see Information Sources for Tracing.

Log Files on the Remote Client

Siebel Remote uses two naming conventions with log files on the remote client. By default, the program log file names are program.log.

where:

• program is Siebel or UpgWiz.

The name of the log file for the process or task Id is Syncthrd_123_456.log.

where:

• 123 is the Id of the process.
• 456 is the Id of the task.

The location of the log file, such as the SyncThrd log file, is determined by the following:

• If you set SIEBEL_LOG_DIR to SIEBEL_LOG_DIR=dir, then Siebel Remote creates the log file in the directory that the dir parameter specifies. Make sure this directory exists and permission to write a file in that location exists.
• If no SIEBEL_LOG_DIR is specified, then Siebel Remote creates the log file in the SIEBEL_CLIENT_ROOT\log directory.
